    How do you make decisions in private practice that allow you to grow and evolve your business from a place of authenticity? And how much time and space do you have for figuring out what you really want in your personal life and private practice?For Jerry, discovering his path in private practice began with slowing down and listening to his body and mind — or, as he likes to call it, his inner compass. Jerry is a therapist in Columbia, MO, providing grief counseling and working with older adults and their caregivers.Because having a successful business does NOT mean you have to follow all the latest marketing trends or be a highly social extrovert who's always networking with other therapists and healing professionals.
